Morning friends, Summer is well underway but it feels different this year doesn’t it? We’re in the midst of history-changing moments and my hope is that it’s creating change for the better.

Thriving Not Surviving [Guest Post]
Morning friends, I’m up at our cabin, being nana this week, but I have a treat for you. I’ve asked my friend Gary Thomas to guest post for me today from his newest book When To Walk Away: Finding Freedom from Toxic People. I love hearing a pastor’s voice and heart validate the horrible effects […]

I Feel Like Such A Failure To God
Morning friends, This week I’m traveling to Toronto, Canada for some meetings. It’s so beautiful here. I wish I could stay longer. I’ve loved Vancouver, BC when I vacationed there a few years ago.

What Details Do My Kids Need To Know? Part II
Morning friends, Today’s question is a follow up to last week’s discussion on what to tell the kids about what’s happening in the marriage.

Is My Husband Indifference A Form Of Abuse?
Morning friends, Wow, I am home at last. It’s been a long, long road trip. Sleeping in my own bed with my own pillow feels so good. Thank you for your prayers. I’m quite sure I would not have gotten through these days without them. Lesson learned: I do not like to travel (personally or […]
My Wife Is Sexually Anorexic. Don’t I Deserve An Explanation?
